Unconditional support for comrade broccoli! 🫡

Meh, I'll take my chances. The heads are going on pikes anyway so that should mitigate the prion problem. As for the metals, well they can't be worse than you'd get eating a lot of predatory fish (like tuna). Since there's a lot of oppressed and a relatively much smaller number of rich, the load will be distributed widely enough to mitigate the metal problem anyway.

Do we know for sure that diseased meat doesn't have a chance to infect a plant if used as a fertilizer?

distribute them to all the carnivore species left in the wild who have become endangered because of them

I have way too much microplastics to be good for environment. Plants would just die form all the heavy metals too

Realistically you feed the rich to pigs and chickens and then eat the pigs and chickens. Otherwise yes, you're just eating tainted meat.

The animals we create are morally equivalent to our own children and are owed the exact same unconditional love and protection.

You’ll feed a lot more people eating meat than composting it.

Highest and best use, guys.
